👍👍 What a great place! I came in to do some work related research, but what a building! Friendly and knowledgeable staff, well signposted and resourced. They are currently allowing free access to the 1921 census so great if you want to do some family research too! Well worth a visit

😠 Work place of the UK'S first ever criminal prime minister, a notorious catfish This is a stunning building and wonderfully preserved interior. A grand monument to by gone era of celebrated democracy. Sad it's currently under siege by conmen. Force Tories to change by not supporting them presently..

😠 An utter disgrace, if you're looking for injustice then you should visit this political court. I recommend avoiding.

😠 Not the best experience with staff particularly ANNE who was extremely rude, lacked understanding or compassion and kept speaking over me. I had been wrongly advised that the visa would be dispatched within a week. When I rang after a week Anne didn’t acknowledge this mistake and insisted it would c...

🫤 I always say I'm so very proud to be a Trinidadian but my experience when phoning the Trinidad High Commission sometimes changes that statement. I can't believe you are calling to get information and no one actually bothers to pick up the phone. Especially in immigration department. Excuses are alwa...

😠 Its absolute joke. The waiting time for EU SS Family and travel permit visa from outside of the UK is said to be 60 working days.... that is 4 months!!! They do not reply to emails or cant give update on the application. They did not let me in to the building in Liverpool. The security guard politel...

😠 Absolutely useless. Applied for two visitor visas 4 months ago and still not heard anything since submission. Processing times listed as 5 days... Won't answer emails, can't call them, or contact online. This means I am going to miss my trip in 2weeks if they don't get their act together. I am going...

😠 With how the country treats it's women by forcing them to wear headcoverings (including non Muslim women) it still lives in the dark ages and i'm surprised our government allow them to have an embassy here!

😠 UK Visas and Immigration hotline is absolutely a disgrace. They charge 69p a minute after taking your credit card details first. My call for application fee refund lasted 7 minutes, of which, 2 minutes were on personal details (which of no use later at all), 3 minutes were spent on hanging there wai...
